Question: Why do I feel tired after I exercise ?
 
Answer: To sustain repetitive muscle movement during exercise, our body use carbohydrate as fuel to provide energy. This doesn't mean eating platefuls of spaghetti or white rice, but high-quality carbohydrates such as whole-grain brown rice, sweet potatoes and oatmeal. Combine those quality carbohydrates with 1 gram of protein per kg of body weight and you will be well on your way. Our heart and lungs also have to be in fit condition and function optimally to supply oxygen during sustained physical activity.

When our body is insufficient of energy from food (carbohydrates as main fuel, vitamin B complex to assist energy releasing process) and oxygen (carried by red blood cells), we will become tired easily.

Helpful tips on exercise:

- Gradually increase your activity level, especially if you have not been exercising regularly.
- Wait at least one and a half hours after eating a meal before exercising.
- Constantly sip water/liquids during exercise to prevent dehydration.
- Take time to include a five-minute warm-up, including stretching exercises, before any aerobic activity and include a five- to 10-minute cool down after the activity.
- Exercise at a steady pace (the intensity you are comfortable with). Keep a pace that allows you to still talk during the activity.
- Pace yourself and balance your activities with rest.

Our body is a complex machine that will get stronger and more efficient as it adapts to a regular program. At start, exercise may make you tired during and right after the activity but over the long term, it can increase stamina and reduce fatigue.

Besides, there are also many other factors that could contribute to tiredness such as stress, hormonal changes, anemia, low blood pressure or other medical conditions. It is wiser to identify the root cause of the problem before undergoing any regimen.

Question: I always feel sleepy in the late afternoon and early evening. Are there supplements suitable for this problem?
 
Answer: Try to have a light lunch if you work in an office or lead a sedentary lifestyle. This is because when we have a heavy lunch, blood flows mainly to our stomach, making us feel sleepy and less alert. If you work in an office, try to get up on your feet and walk around to ensure good blood circulation. In the late evening, it is quite common to feel sleepy as our bodies prepare to rest for the night.

Strive to eat smaller but regular meals and exercise regularly. Having sufficient sleep and rest is just as important too.

We understand it is not easy to do all of the above, given the constant pressure of time. That's why we rely on Health Supplements to enhance our efforts to keep healthy and live well.

You may wish to try BRAND’S Essence of Chicken with American Ginseng to help you stay mentally alert and improve your stamina. For a start, consume 1 bottle on alternate days. Move on to taking 1 bottle a day once you’re comfortable.

Question: I am a female with two daughters aged 2 and 4. Before I gave birth to my second daughter, I could somehow find the energy to do the housework even after work, no matter how tired I was. But lately, I find my self getting tired out easily. I feel sleepy throughout the day.
 
Answer: There are many factors that could account for your tiredness such as stress, hormonal changes, lack of proper nutrition and being overweight. Running after children could also physically drain you out!

Here are some ways which could help raise your energy levels:

Exercise. Exercise doesn’t have to be a chore-- incorporate it into your daily routine to make it more enjoyable! For example, take the stairs instead of the lift; get down one bus stop earlier on your way home, do skipping while watching TV, or even turn on the radio and sway to your favourite music while doing housework!

Proper diet. Eating a well-balanced diet is also important in maintaining a healthy weight and for overall health. To lose weight, you will need to use up more energy than you get from food. If you are eating more than you should, cutting down on the calories consumed in your food and drinks will help to maintain or lose weight. It also helps to cut down on fatty and sugary food while increasing your intake of fruits and vegetables.

Important intake of nutrients. An improper diet or poor selection of food may also deprive our body of the essential nutrients that keep us healthy. As a result, we may be more prone to or suffer from illness, stress and fatigue. Foods that are rich in essential nutrients such as iron and Vitamin B are important for fighting fatigue. Foods rich in iron include beef, liver, and spinach. Vitamin B can be found in food such as meat and nuts.

If your tiredness is due to an imbalanced diet, we encourage you to eat a well-balanced diet that comprises of good sources of nutrients. In addition, we also like to introduce you to BRAND’S Essence of Chicken.

BRAND’S Essence of Chicken has been scientifically proven to help you fight fatigue, improve your metabolic rate and contribute to your general well-being, both mentally and physically.

However, if your constant tiredness does not improve despite embarking on a healthy lifestyle, please seek advice from your doctor.
